Target stores have it. It's actually not bad (though I had the same aversion to the concept). definitely has a significant caffeine hit to it. and it's only 45 calories per bottle. but the best part...?

when you're done, you can peel off the label and keep the cool 8 oz. glass bottle without any coca-cola branding on it. the shape is so iconic, i love it, and it leaves a lot of creative possibilities open without a logo on it.

Hey, d, I was down at the Target in Branson this weekend and they had it. I'd guess the ones around here have them too. They weren't with the Coke products, but more near the pre-made mixed drinks. Good luck!

Coke Blak is a very different type of soda than Dr. Pepper, or for that matter Coke. I bought it in the energy drinks section, but it's not exactly an energy drink either. It's coffee soda.

In Florida in the summer, it's just too damn hot to drink regular coffee. There's a good chance that coke blak will find its way into my morning routine. While we're on the topic of 2nd tier sodas, though, has anyone had Vernors? I like it, but I had never heard of it before moving to central FL. Apparently it's a Detroit product.

Wait a minute. Coca-Cola is making some kind of coke-coffee thing and they're calling it Coke Blak?

Before we discuss availability can't we pause to ask the obvious question, "Oh dear lord, why must they torment us with their endless bullshit?"

Having said that, I've recently been working with K-12 kids and it is my observation that from about 12 years old up they are continuously slamming whatever energy drink du jour has found favor with their peeps.

Which is, of course, exactly what the world needs: adolescents jacked up on massive doses of caffeine, taurine, gingko, carnitine, B12 and god knows what else. This on top of their customary 5 pounds of sugar a day.

I dunno, are energy drinks being secretly funded by the methamphetamine industry as a recruitment aid? What will the world look like when most people have been absolutely wired since they were 12?

They spoke of the sayings and doings of their commander, the grand duke, and told stories of his kindness and irascibility.

I can see this being a problem, but it will probably phase out as the fad slows down. We used to drink "Double Jolt" back in the day which, as it turns out, has about as much caffeine per serving as a Rockstar drink. The taurine stuff is just glorified vitamin B. The other fact is that a cup of coffee has a lot more caffeine in it than any energy drink.

On another note, for the record, I got my Coke Blak for $1 per bottle ($4 for 4 pack). I wouldn't have paid $2 for it, but it wasn't bad. I've had other coffee sodas in the past and it is the best one I can remember.

Well, the US could start by ending their asinine public high school practice of letting food companies sponsor the cafeteria.
